Play this with Capo on 2nd. You can transpose it up or down easily though, and it still works.

[Verse]
G                    D
Time to tell me the truth
                 Am
To burden your mouth for what you say 
             C
No pieces of paper in the way
         G                           D
Cause I can't continue pretending to choose
              Am
The opposite sides on which we fall
                C
The loving you matters if at all
D                      C
No right minds could wrong Be that many times
 
G                 D
   My memory is cruel 
               Am
I'm queen of attention to detail
            C
Defending intentions if he fails
        G                  D
Until now, he told me her name
             Am
It sounded familiar in a way
             C                                           D
I could have sworn I'd heard him say it ten thousand times
           C
Oh if only I had Been listening
 
 
[Chorus]
G              C
Leave unsaid unspoken
G               C
Eyes wide shut unopened
D
You and me
C                    G
Always Between the lines
             D    Am   C
Between the lines
 
 
[Verse]
    G                               D
I thought I thought I was ready to Bleed
                            Am
That we'd move on from the shadows on the wall
                  C
And stand in the center of it all
     G                    D
Too late two choices to stay or to leave
             Am
Mine was so easy to uncover
              C
He'd already left with the other
D                  C
So I've learned to listen through silence
 
 
[Chorus]
G              C
Leave unsaid unspoken
G               C
Eyes wide shut unopened
D                 C
You and me, always Be
D                 C
You and me, always Be
 
 
[Verse]
Am              D
  I tell myself all the words he surely meant to say
Am                 C
I'll talk until the conversation doesn't stay on
D               Am
Wait for me, I'm almost ready
D                C
When he meant let go 
 
(Hold chord)
 
 
[Chorus]
G    D G      C
Leave unsaid unspoken
G   D   G      C
Eyes wide shut unopened
D          C
You and me, always Be
D          C                   G
You and me, always Between the lines
             D                 Am
Between the lines, Between the lines

This is really good... if you do a few things to it. First, you want to transpose it so that the first note is an Emaj, and the second a Bmaj and so on. ALSO, I noticed that if you leave the top two strings open all the time (B string and high E string) when you play the chords it sounds really, really good. So instead of playing Bmaj x24442, play x24400

I've noticed that you don't need to use the capo on the second fret- it sounds more accurate without it :)
